The Shijingshan District lies
due West out of Beijing City Center
and lies wedged between west-Haidian District and the North Borders of Fengtai District. Recently integrated as part of the larger City Metropolis by ways of the Fifth Ring Road of the City, today's Shijingshan is no longer a Village but a designated residential District of Beijing.
None of the Top 100 tourist sights & monuments of Beijing are located in Shijingshan, and none are reviewed on this web site (so far). No Olympic Venues and Architectural Wonders of the City lie in Shijingshan. The most popular venues of the district are the Badachu Park (also known as the Eight Great Sights Temples) and the Shijingshan Amusement Park (Beijing Shijingshan Youleyuan).

The Badachu Temple Park is collection of Temples spread about the foothills of the Western Hills.

The Shijingshan Amusement Park is a Theme Park opened in 1986 AD, but not on most tourist itineraries. In 2007 the Theme Park was exposed as among things- a copy of Walt Disney World and it is engaged in Legal Battles.

Subway/Metro Line 1, the Red Line shuttles between Shijingshan District in the West and Chaoyang District in the East. Travel easily from the City Center into Shijingshan District along the extended Line 1 since early 2008 AD.
